HAPPY RECORD STORE day.
The annual celebration has reached us again, where we appreciate all things independent in music.
There are in-store events going on in Ireland’s independent record shops, as well as some lovely exclusive RSD releases to be found.
Deluxe version of U2′s Songs of Innocence, anybody? Anybody?
Here’s what’s going on near you.
1. Tower Dublin
There’s a mini festival going on in Tower’s Dawson St store today.
The queues were big this morning, so get down soon if you want the good stuff. TXFM will also be broadcasting live all day.

Local bands such as Cloud Castle Lake will be performing live throughout the day.
